What Our Guests Say

“La Suite Capricciosa at Relais La Capricciosa is unlike any room I have stayed in anywhere in Italy. Waking up to the Florence skyline — the Duomo, the hills — is something I will carry for years.”

“L'Alchimista is a revelation. The cocktails inspired by Medici alchemy are theatrical but precise. We stayed for the tapas and never left.”

“The Art Concierge arranged a private after-hours visit to the Uffizi — with an art historian — that was simply extraordinary. You cannot buy this kind of access anywhere else.”

“Our honeymoon was made perfect by every single detail at the Relais. The private dinner in La Corte Segreta, under the lemon trees and candlelight, was the most romantic moment of our lives. The staff made us feel truly at home.”

“We chose Relais La Capricciosa for our wedding anniversary and could not have chosen better. The Arno room with its river view, the Fragrance Menu set to Florentine iris, breakfast in La Corte Segreta — pure magic.”

“As an art lover, the Art Concierge service exceeded every expectation. A private visit to the Accademia, a tour of the artisan workshops in the Oltrarno, an itinerary built just for us. The Relais is a masterpiece within a masterpiece.”

“The Pillow Menu and the Fragrance Menu are details I have never found anywhere else. The Japanese buckwheat pillow and the Tuscan cypress fragrance made our nights unforgettable. We will certainly return.”

“Three nights are not enough. The location is unbeatable — three minutes from the Uffizi, five from Ponte Vecchio. The Caterina room is elegant and blissfully quiet despite the central position. Room Service at eleven with the truffle risotto was the perfect finishing touch.”

“The Tuscan cooking class arranged by the Art Concierge and the wine tasting in Chianti were experiences that brought us closer to the real Tuscany. The Relais is not just a hotel — it is a gateway to Florentine culture.”

“A perfect romantic weekend. From the terrace of the Suite Capricciosa we watched the sunset over the Duomo with a glass of Brunello. Il Salotto del Capriccio in the evening is a magical place. Florence could not be more beautiful than this.”
